Kent clearly didn't know where the sudden interest in painting and calligraphy came from. He was only thinking about how to become famous when he lost track of time and found himself in this part of the city.
However, as he stood there, watching the thousands of paintings lined up on display, the same feeling he got when he held the sword for the first time seemed to crawl its way back into his heart.
Immediately, he could tell he had, at one point in time, fancied calligraphy and painting.
This means that one of his past incarnations had been a painter.
He, of course, ruled out Chaos, Jest, Faceless, the Ruthless Bandit, and even Kevin Sage. They aren't the kind of people with an eye for painting or calligraphy.
This could only mean that out of the eight lives he had yet to know something of, one of them was a painter, and judging by the feeling he was getting as he stood there staring at the paintings, he knew without a shred of doubt that he was a very good painter.
